Chapter 104 Lift Your Hijab!Textile publishing and engraving can set up factories!

"The act of clinging to the palace to enter the spring is also cancelled. I don't want those hypocrisy!"

In addition to the spring in various prefectures, it is also necessary to enter the palace for spring, which requires satin wood, flame orbs, silver beads, emerald flowers, gauze lanterns, etc. These expenditures must also be shared among the common people.

"I report to Your Majesty that it is good government to abolish the bad custom of welcoming the spring."

Yin Zhi gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, if recruiting soldiers from the refugees, will the military households divide the land?"

Land is an extremely sensitive word.

Too many people's interests are involved in it, and Zhu Qiyu dare not touch it casually.

"What do you think?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

Yin Zhi hesitated for a while, took out a memorial from his sleeve pocket, held it high with both hands, and knelt on the ground.

Feng Xiao presented it, Zhu Qiyu frowned.

"The foundation of Wang Ji's four directions, the common people in today's world are really poor, especially in Beizhili."

"Although the taxes levied are slightly wider than those in the south, the land produced is also poor, and it is close to the capital, with many roads and important roads. In the middle, foreign barbarians pay tribute. Raising horses, Jingban Zaoli, and Shuima Erzhan are the most complicated and dramatic."

"In recent years, some undocumented people have pretended that the small people's property was abandoned, and invested it in the family of the honored relatives, or seized the private room as their own property, or asked the government to change it to a farmland. Some officials knew that the property was gone. Send... to drive the people out of the way to complain."

"You wrote it?" Zhu Qiyu closed the memorial, lost in thought.

Is this Yin Zhi one of Hu Min's people, or does he want to take the opportunity to join me?
In the memorial, there are all common topics such as criticizing the maladministration of Gyeonggi, diverse and harsh taxes, excessive labor, not sparing the people's power, severe land annexation, and so on.

To sum it up in one sentence, the lives of the people in Gyeonggi are hard.

"Report to Your Majesty, it was written by a humble minister." Yin Zhi tapped his forehead to the ground, lest His Majesty would be angry.

Gein's sages are all people who are very happy and successful. The so-called prosperous age is just a whitewash. From ancient times to the present, how much is the real prosperous age?

He was worried that His Majesty would kick him away in anger and lose the chance to enter the center forever.

"Well written, but incomplete and not detailed enough."

Zhu Qiyu couldn't see the joy or anger: "I entrusted you with a task, list the exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and present it to me, and I will read it at the court meeting."

"Those who can be reduced or exempted, I will reduce them according to the circumstances; those who cannot be reduced or exempted will try to reduce the number of officials who handle them as much as possible, and receive them from the center as much as possible, take pity on the power of the people, and let their population multiply."

Yin Zhi knew he had made the right bet!
When the cabinet handed over this memorial, he understood the deep meaning of the cabinet.The emperor wants to be a sage, and the cabinet helps the emperor to be a sage, so he can only rise to the top if he becomes a virtuous minister.

"My minister complies with the decree!" He exhaled cautiously, the opportunity was close in front of him, and if he seized it, he would reach the sky in one step.

Zhu Qiyu returned the memorial to him: "Yin Zhi, you have prepared well, these things are what I want to see."

"I am definitely not a king who is offended by my words, let alone a person who loves to make great achievements. You should encourage him, and you will be my confidential document."

"Thank you, Lord Long En!" Yin Zhi kowtowed.

He is not like Wang Zhi, Li Xian, etc. who are shy and straight to admit the master.

Because he has no right to be shy, he is just a small Hanlin Academy, and many students like him in the Hanlin Academy are like crucian carp crossing the river.

Swinging Yin Zhi back, Zhu Qiyu closed his eyes and meditated.

Hu Wei and other civil officials changed their strategy and wanted to exhaust him with long articles. The matter of entering the spring was just throwing stones to ask for directions.

There are more problems in the future, which give me a headache.

But that's okay, once the problem is solved, Daming will become stronger, and Zhen will be able to sweep Mobei.

Continue to review the memorials.

"There are no punctuation marks, it's really a headache to watch." Zhu Qiyu didn't know if there were punctuation marks in this era.

"Feng Xiao, go find a few miscellaneous books on the street, and bring them back for me to read."

"Back to the emperor, the factory also printed some miscellaneous books, and the servants went to get some." Feng Xiao replied.

"can."

Jingchang is affiliated to the Lijian and is one of the official book engraving factories.

Nowadays, Guozijian, Qintianjian, Duchayuan, Zhanshifu, Imperial Hospital, Ministry of Rites, Ministry of Industry, and History Bureau of the Ministry of War all have book engraving factories.

But the biggest one is Jingchang. The books circulating on the market are called Jingchang editions because the word "Jingchang" is marked on them.

Zhu Qiyu wanted to understand by analogy, thinking about how to promote punctuation.

In the evening, Shu Liang came back to report that Meng Zhou was willing to enter Xuan Town as a spy.

"From among those who committed crimes that night, pick out those who have family members in Beijing, and send them all out."

Zhu Qiyu's eyes flickered: "I want to see clearly how Xuanzhen was defeated?"

"The slaves obey the orders!"

Zhu Qiyu said: "Speed ​​up the speed of raiding the house. You will also raid the house of the sinner in Dongchang. The things that are searched, the copper coins are placed in the inner storage, and the silver and other valuables are brought into the palace."

"My lord, two palaces have already been filled, and the servants are worried that there are dirty hands and feet in the palace." Shu Liang wanted to put it in a part of the Dongchang warehouse.

"It's okay, if you steal it in the palace, you won't be able to transport it out, the meat will end up in the pot."

"I lost it outside, what's the use of killing a few people?"

Zhu Qiyu is worried about the outside of the palace: "The eunuchs and stewards of Huangzhuang and Huangdian should also speed up the search. Houses and other things should be distributed to the refugees... By the way, the refugees have money in their hands. You can sell them directly. You can also exchange food for them." become."

The emperor absolutely wants money!Even those in the hands of the refugees are not spared!
Shu Liang promised.

"Sell them at a lower price. Houses in the inner city are always more expensive than those in the outer city. You decide the price."

"Anyway, get out as soon as possible, and get all the refugees who have money."

Zhu Qiyu's eyes were dark: "It's good to cancel the imperial store, but I can't take money blatantly!"

That's right, the Huangdian also has a special function, which is to collect taxes on behalf of the emperor in various places.

"Dongchang is willing to collect taxes for the emperor!" Shu Liang knelt on the ground.

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "There is no need to do Dongchang. A protection gift almost caused Dongchang to collapse. You can act as a merchant's umbrella. I plan to promote the department and set up a supervisor to collect the world's taxes for me!"

Shu Liang's eyes were gloomy. Of course, the more power the better.

But the supervisor is an empty shelf. If he can get it into Dongchang's hands, he pursed his lips and didn't dare to think too much.

"But I don't have any clever people on hand, so you can recommend me an admiral and eunuch."

Shu Liang's eyes lit up: "My servant thanked the emperor for his trust, and this servant thought that Gong Huang could be used! Gong Huang is your bearer and the elder brother of Gong Hui under this servant. He is reliable, loyal and brave, so this servant recommended him to the emperor." .”

"Gong Huang is fine, but he doesn't understand economics." Zhu Qiyu also felt that his eight bearers were all available.

"There is another person recommended by the servant, Hu Changgui from the East Factory. He was born as a jewelry shopkeeper, and was absorbed into the East Factory by the servant. He is diligent, understands business, and has ambitions. He can run errands for Gong Huang."

Shu Liang also recommended several shopkeepers.

They were all the shopkeepers gathered that night on the night of the killing, and now they all work in the East Factory.

But Dongchang doesn't need this kind of people at other times except for raiding the house.

"That's it."

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "The department has set up a tax bureau under the jurisdiction of the supervisor. Tax bureaus have been set up all over the country and above the county level to collect taxes from all over the world. Gong Huang is the palm seal eunuch, and Hu Changgui and the other four are temporarily..."

"My lord, they are all slaves and merchants. Letting them serve as officials and set up prisons is already a great favor from the emperor. How can they become officials?" Shu Liang looked disdainful.

"Then let's run errands in the supervisor first." Zhu Qiyu also wanted to test Hu Changgui and others.

After sending Shu Liang away, he brought Gong Huang in.

The establishment of a supervisor will replace the imperial store, and it is justifiable to collect business taxes.

Let him go outside the palace to pick eunuchs.

After handling the government affairs, Zhu Qiyu Xuan Tan's family had an audience.

Tan Yunxian was very uncomfortable.

She didn't expect that she was inexplicably accepted as a lady by the emperor.

The emperor's overbearing made her uncomfortable, but news came from her family that she was brought into the palace. The family celebrated with each other, and the chickens and dogs ascended to heaven. They wrote to congratulate her, telling her to serve His Majesty well.

Her mouth was bitter, and her parents and brothers didn't consider her feelings, and didn't ask her if she was willing.

The emperor did not ask her wishes.

As if no one cared about her feelings.

When it was dark, the eunuch of Qianqing Palace informed her to see her.

Because she didn't have a maid to serve her, she relied on herself to tidy up everything, put on her hat, and enter the Palace of Qinzheng to have an audience.

"Why are you still wearing a hat?"

Zhu Qiyu wanted to take it off, but Tan Yunxian tilted his head slightly to avoid Zhu Qiyu's hand.

Clearly resisted.

"Annoyed me?"

Zhu Qiyu asked her to stand up, with a brisk tone: "I accepted you without your consent. Am I similar to a treacherous and powerful man? Bullying the good and the good, and robbing the women of the people? Is it the bully in your alley?"

He waved his hand and told the eunuchs to step back.

Then walk into the inner hall.

"My daughter dare not." Tan Yunxian followed helplessly.

"Don't dare to use it well, in fact, I am the biggest villain in the world!"

Zhu Qiyu sat on the bed and said with a smile: "I receive all kinds of impeachment memorials every day, and I know it, but I don't care about it."

"Seeing them fish and meat the common people, seeing the common people suffer and suffer."

"I acted as if nothing had happened, but I was talking nonsense about benefiting the common people, and using hundreds of millions of lives as an excuse for our party to fight against dissidents. Hehe, it is not wrong to say that I am the worst."

"Your Majesty has people in his heart." Tan Yunxian spoke softly for Zhu Qiyu.

"Is there?" Zhu Qiyu asked her back.

Tan Yunxian nodded seriously: "Princess Shoukang passed away that day. Although the words you said were ruthless, they knew the sufferings of the people. I believe that His Majesty is not just talking about it, but has people in his heart. "

"Then you admire me?" Zhu Qiyu smiled.

"The servant girl dare not!"

Tan Yunxian hurriedly knelt on the ground, just said the taboo words, Princess Shoukang passed away, His Majesty must have a grudge in his heart, and Wang's...

"stand up."

"I'm really bad, I won't let you out of the palace."

"I remember that you told me about your ideal, that you would like to heal the poor."

"But I'm selfish, after seeing your beauty, I'm reluctant to let you out of the palace!" Zhu Qiyu looked frank.

But the eyes behind the hat lighted up slightly, but he didn't want her evasive words that day to be still fresh in the emperor's memory.

It's just that the emperor's words were too explicit.

"You want to heal the poor."

"I also want to rule this world!"

"It was a hit and miss."

"But relying on the strength of me and you alone, at most a corner of the land can be ruled, so how can we talk about the world?"

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "I set up a medical bureau to issue medical certificates to doctors, regularly assess medical skills, improve the status of medical households, and encourage talented people to practice medicine. What do you think?"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty's words are serious?" Tan Yunxian exclaimed, just about to kneel down.

"do not move!"

Zhu Qiyu suddenly said, Tan Yunxian was still when he heard the words, and leaned forward slightly.

Zhu Qiyu's hand just touched Weimao.

He gently took off the hat, revealing a delicate face, with a touch of playfulness on the fair and tender face.

"Ah!" Tan Yunxian exclaimed, her pretty face flushed.

She wears a hat all the year round, and she is not used to the candle light.

"I did this for the common people of the world, so that when they are sick, there will be a doctor to see them." Zhu Qiyu stared at her small face.

Her eyes were a little dazed, and she didn't seem very agile.

Tan Yunxian lowered his head, just about to kneel down.

Zhu Qiyu took advantage of the situation and pulled her into his arms.

"Your Majesty, no!" Tan Yunxian resisted very much.

Although she was named a lady, the ceremony has not yet been held.

Before marriage, this is synonymous with letting wolves go.

If it is spread, she will never even think about raising her head in this life.

"It's also selfish for me to do this. I want to win your heart in the name of promoting medical skills." Zhu Qiyu said.

Although she is young, she is just right.

Sitting in the emperor's arms, Tan Yunxian's body was stiff, and his body trembled slightly under the tension.

Itching behind ears.

"His Majesty……"

She called softly, her voice was a little soft, she wanted to push it away, but she didn't dare.

The emperor gave her the impression that his face was gloomy and his actions were ruthless, so she was afraid.

"Listen to me, I can't allow you to go to the folks to be a doctor's wife, it's my own selfishness."

"The sage said, Shi ** is also, I am also a mortal, and I am fascinated by your beauty."

"But I can let you teach countless doctors with your own hands, and promote medicine!" Zhu Qiyu leaned closer to her ear.

Tan Yunxian wanted to dodge, but Zhu Qiyu didn't allow her to move.

"Do you want to be famous in history?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"miss you!"

Tan Yunxian had a lot of things to say in his mind, but when the words came to his mouth, they were thrown out of the blue again.

"Then how about you stay in the palace?"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

"Ok?"

Zhu Qiyu let go, and said seriously: "I set up the Medical Bureau, not only to be responsible for the assessment, but also to teach doctors. There is a medical school in it, and the medical school of the Imperial Hospital is merged into it. Just like the Imperial Academy, it cultivates medical talents for the country."

"When the medical school takes initial effect, I will set up medical colleges in the two capitals and thirteen provinces, and the medical bureau will set up branches to be in charge of the doctors of the world."

"I plan to let the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital enter the medical school as a teacher and teach the students. Do you want to be the sacrificial wine of the medical school?"

"Yeah? A courtier?"

Tan Yunxian's eyes looked hopeful: "Can women also make sacrificial wine?"

"Of course, women can hold up half the sky!" Zhu Qiyu said seriously.

"Women also hold up half the sky?"

Tan Yunxian muttered to himself, tears welling up in his eyes.

She is a female doctor, she practiced medicine in Beijing, she had received many stares, and only her grandmother doted on her, so she was willing to teach her medical skills. If it was another family, women would not be able to learn the secrets passed down from their ancestors.

Even if she has finished her studies, what she encounters the most are stares and criticism. Even the patients she cured will laugh at her for not treating her well in her boudoir because she is a woman, and even laugh at her for not being able to get married.For this reason, how many nights she secretly wiped tears.

She also thought, quickly find a good husband and marry herself, but she is not willing to marry an ordinary person, and the high-ranking family has a grudge because of her publicity, so she is not allowed to be a concubine. wife.

Her marriage was delayed, and now that she is over seventeen, the matchmaker who broke through the threshold has receded, she is used to loneliness, and is ready to die alone, if not, she will become a sister-in-law.

But the most honorable person in the world, His Majesty said that a woman can also hold up half the sky!
"Well!"

Tan Yunxian, who was being moved, suddenly had his mouth sealed.

But her majesty's words were still lingering in her mind, and she immediately resisted. The emperor was in pain and let her go.

"Your Majesty, your dragon body is not in good condition. Not yet, you can't..." Tan Yunxian couldn't continue, the emperor was too lazy.

"What can't be done?" Zhu Qiyu smacked his lips and asked with a smile.

"cannot**!"

She turned around, her pretty face flushed.

At some point, she actually sat on the dragon floor.

"When did I want that? I've been telling you serious things, talking about female doctors!" Zhu Qiyu had an innocent face.

"ah?"

Tan Yunxian wished he could find a crack in the ground and get in.

But he was caught by His Majesty again: "Since we are so eager to talk about female doctors, then I will resign myself to it..."

Tan Yunxian pushed him away eagerly, and said quickly, "No! Firstly, your majesty's dragon body is not in good condition, and secondly, your majesty and his courtiers have not yet married, so you must not mess up your position. Please forgive me!"

As he spoke, he was about to kneel down, his forehead sweating in anxiety.

"Hahaha!"

"I'm just teasing you!"

Zhu Qiyu took her by the hand: "I understand my daughter's mind. Although I am a lady, I also respect you and never regard you as a concubine."

Tan Yunxian lowered his head, for some reason, his heart was as sweet as honey.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"I allow you to make sacrificial wine, how about it?" Zhu Qiyu asked seriously.

Tan Yunxian nodded quickly: "My daughter agrees."

"What's your name?" Zhu Qiyu asked with a straight face.

"Concubine!"

Zhu Qiyu nodded in satisfaction and patted his leg, but Tan Yunxian shook his head like a frightened rabbit.

"Then I will not allow you to make sacrificial wine."

"ah?"

Her eyes were a little dazed, with disappointment flashing in her dazed eyes.

Come over slowly and sit on the emperor.

A look of devotion to ideals.

"I'm also narrow-minded, but don't allow others to look at my beloved concubine!" Zhu Qiyu's hands were dishonest.

Tan Yunxian was disappointed, it's a lie that women hold up half the sky.

"But I intend to recruit a group of women who are willing to practice medicine from among the refugees, as well as some young children, and you will teach them to practice medicine."

"I have chosen the location, the medical hall in the Tai Hospital."

"what do you think?"

Zhu Qiyu buried his face in the bed.

"Teach women and children? Really?"

Tan Yunxian hurriedly turned her head, and knocked her head on Zhu Qiyu's chin: "Your Majesty, forgive me, my ministers and concubines are reckless!"

Zhu Qiyu rubbed his chin: "Seeing that you are usually slow and orderly, how can you be so eager when you mention medicine? I think you are deliberately taking revenge on me! Stay here tonight!"

"ah!"

Tan Yunxian jumped up in shock, just about to escape from the inner hall, but came back in fright, and knelt at the door like a doormat.

"Is my face so hideous?" Zhu Qiyu sighed.

"Your Majesty's dragon is in poor health, and my concubines dare not affect your Majesty's health." She said it nicely, but she just didn't want to serve her.

"Hey, warm quilt and thin bed, it's hard to wake up in the middle of the night."

Zhu Qiyu sighed, and lay down on his back: "Then you step back, and let me sleep on this cold quilt by myself."

Tan Yunxian walked over slowly: "Your Majesty, please get up, I will warm the quilt for Your Majesty."

"Oh?" Zhu Qiyu immediately stood up.

Tan Yunxian went in like a kitten, pouted, like a doormat, his body shivered involuntarily.

"Is it cold? Is it burning coals? I will help you warm up!" Zhu Qiyu.

"ah!"

Tan Yunxian sat up in shock, but Zhu Qiyu pressed her down.

"No! Your Majesty!" Tan Yunxian burst into tears anxiously, she is not yet married, if this happens, she will not be able to raise her head and say nothing, even her children will be inferior to others.

"Don't cry, I'm just kidding you." Zhu Qiyu wiped her tears.

Tan Yunxian saw the right opportunity, ran to the door in horror, knelt on the ground, his little face was tense, and his face was full of tears.

"Get up, I was reckless, don't cry, okay?" Zhu Qiyu thought it was fun to bully the doormat.

It's okay if you don't say anything, but once you say no to cry, Tan Yunxian cried even more fiercely, faltering and saying: "You said you respect me, but you don't respect me at all, woo woo..."

Speaking of grievances, there were more tears.

"I'm teasing you." Zhu Qiyu came over and tried to help her up, but she shook off the emperor's hand like a petty temper, and continued to cry.

Zhu Qiyu knelt down, looked at her crying, and couldn't help laughing: "You look so ugly when you cry!"

Tan Yunxian covered his face, not letting him see, and continued to cry, crying loudly, very presumptuously.

"The snot is coming out, I'm going to find some paper for you, huh? Where's the paper I used when I came out, I'll go find it and wipe your face."

"do not want!"

Tan Yunxian wiped his face directly with his clothes, and wiped his nose on the clothes.

Zhu Qiyu was full of disgust.

"I don't want to enter the palace anymore, can your majesty let me out?" Tan Yunxian continued to cry.

"I also want to congratulate."

Tan Yunxian was taken aback for a moment, seeing the emperor's body movements, he immediately covered his eyes, unable to bear to look directly.

"If you cry again, I'll let you serve me out of respect." Zhu Qiyu really had no choice.

In an instant, Tan Yunxian stopped his tears and stared blankly at the carpet, with the corners of his mouth curled up, tears in his eyes, as if they could burst out at any time.

Zhu Qiyu squatted down and met her eyes.

Tan Yunxian thought that the emperor really wanted to show respect, so he subconsciously backed away.

"You dislike me?" Zhu Qiyu noticed her small movements.

"No." Tan Yunxian insisted.

"Then you serve me out of respect."

"No!" Tan Yunxian quickly shook his head.

Zhu Qiyu's face turned cold: "How dare you despise me, a little lady? I gave you the Yi tribe!"

Wow!
Tan Yunxian stared blankly at the emperor for a few moments, then burst into tears, ignoring beauty and ugliness, begging for mercy repeatedly, but the emperor should not.

Crying and crying, she wiped her snot and tears with her clothes.

"Hahaha! I am teasing you!"

Zhu Qiyu laughed suddenly, and immediately said in a discussing tone: "Can you stop wiping your nose with my dragon robe, I will wear it tomorrow?"

"Uh?"

Tan Yunxian couldn't help laughing, but a bubble came out of his nose.

She smoked it, the bubble burst, and quickly wiped it off with a dragon robe.

Only then did he realize that he was using a dragon robe, and when he looked up again, Zhu Qiyu's entire face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Tomorrow, tomorrow, my concubine will wash for His Majesty." Tan Yunxian put it down carefully, pinching the corner of his clothes nervously with his small hands.

"I'll take it back to wash today."

"According to the order."

Tan Yunxian pouted, on the way back, thinking of his presumptuousness, he suddenly laughed.

"Talking lady, the emperor asked you to go to Chengqian Palace to pick a few maidservants. You have a few personal maidservants at home. Write a note to the servant girls. The servant girls will all come to the palace and pick some to serve you effectively."

On the way back to Yonghe Palace, the one who helped Tan Yunxian carry the lantern was Fei Chong, who was also a bearer of the emperor:

"I haven't seen the emperor so happy for a long time. I can tell that the emperor likes you. Please don't disappoint the emperor."

"Oh."

Tan Yunxian was in a daze, since she entered the palace, she had been cautious, but she didn't want to be too presumptuous tonight, fortunately the emperor wasn't really angry, otherwise she would really be a disaster for the whole family.

If the emperor's words were not a joke and really killed her three clans, what could she do?
Thinking of this, she shuddered.

"My daughter, Xie Gonggong, made a point." Tan Yunxian, who came to his senses, gave Fei Chong a respectful salute.

Fei Chong stepped aside: "Your servant is nothing more than a bearer, how dare you accept the courtesy of a lady?"

"A courtier is no more than a mere doctor, how can she be noble?" Tan Yunxian saluted respectfully.

Fei Chong accepted it calmly, and returned the gift.

When he arrived at Yonghe Palace, Tan Yunxian suddenly understood that living in this palace should be involuntary, and tonight is really too presumptuous.

……

The next day, morning came.

Dong Ci met with him in the Palace of Qinzheng.

Zhu Qiyu was flipping through Romance of the Three Kingdoms, this book is actually a banned book.

Along with him, Outlaws of the Marsh is also banned.

On the contrary, it is exquisitely printed, made of white cotton, and the ink marks are clear. The whole text is in Zhao style (Zhao Mengfu), and the handwriting is clear and smooth.

According to what Feng Xiao said, this is not a Jingchang version. The Jingchang version is made of yellow cotton or bamboo paper, and there are typos at the beginning. This collection is presented.

Collections have no punctuation, but classics add a circle at the end of sentences.

This circle should be sentence reading (dou four tones), the meaning of punctuation.

When reading, Zhu Qiyu still reads the scripture factory version more fluently, although the handwriting is illegible and there are a lot of typos.

Zhu Qiyu wrote down punctuation marks, simple commas, periods, question marks, exclamation marks, quotation marks, etc. on rice paper.

Marked a few more pages in the factory book, and then threw it to Feng Xiao: "Send it to the military aircraft department, let them use it."

There is no need to explain, those academicians who have thoroughly studied the Four Books and Five Classics can understand it with a single eye.

"It's all over?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Dong Ci.

When Dong Ci saw the punctuation, he understood the meaning in seconds, and didn't dare to talk nonsense: "Report to the emperor, it is roughly finished."

"Let's talk about it first, what kind of business is suitable for women to work?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"The servant girl thinks that weaving is the most suitable. Firstly, she doesn't need to show her face and cause troubles in the city; secondly, the textile industry in the north is not as good as the south. Nowadays, water transport is used to transport rice and grain, but the north is short of cloth, so the servant girl thinks that it can make money."

Dong Ci said that nowadays silk from Jiangnan, Lu silk from Shanxi, Japanese satin (velvet) from Fujian and Guangxi, Shu brocade from Sichuan, and tussah silk from Shandong have local characteristics and are popular far and near.

South Songjiang, North Lu'an, clothes the world.

It shows that Daming Textile is number one in the world, not one of them.

Gyeonggi does not have any advantages in silk, cotton, embroidery and other industries.

But it was cold in the north, and Dong Ci thought that cotton and wool textiles could be developed.

Although there is a saying in cotton textiles that "the three golden flowers are the river flowers in Chuzhong, the northern flowers in Shandong, and the Zhejiang flowers in Yuyao", but now Xuanzhen, Shandong, and Gyeonggi are suffering disasters, and they are in urgent need of cotton fabrics, so they can make a small profit.

However, wool textiles are concentrated in the Shanxi and Shaanxi areas. The varieties include velvet, brown, felt, fur, etc. The categories are thin and the common people do not recognize them.

Dong Ci believes that Gyeonggi can vigorously develop wool spinning.

He believes that wool spinning is in its infancy, and as long as there are suitable looms, warmer clothes can be spun.

Zhu Qiyu took a deep look at him and said nothing.

Building a workshop and resettling the women among the refugees, not to mention how much profit, at least it is a way to survive.

"Have a heart."

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Weaving is indeed suitable for women, and it can also drive the cotton planting in Beizhili and provide a livelihood for the common people."

"Wool spinning is better. Gyeonggi is very close to Mobei. If we develop a new loom and use wool, maybe Daming can use wool to control Mobei."

"How many looms do you have and how much space do you need?"

He didn't say much.

"Returning to the emperor, the slaves have collected all the textile workshops in central Beijing, and probably received more than [-] looms, but the level of the looms is different, and the slaves have not yet fully counted."

Dong Ci replied: "The maidservant thought that a factory could be set up in Chaoyang. First, the scale of the workshop is sufficient; second, it can relieve the pressure on the inner city."

"The slave girl heard that the emperor wants to plan the inner city, widen the roads, build more workshops, etc., so the slave girl wants to empty the original workshop area and hand it over to the emperor."

Dong Ci can be a eunuch.

Knowing that every inch of land in the inner city is precious, the land is precious, so it is dedicated to the emperor.

"You are filial. I don't take these lands for nothing. All the funds for the construction of the textile factory are collected from within, but I only hold [-]% of the shares. I set aside [-]% for the workers in the workshop, and the female workers also have , divided equally by everyone."

"My lord, this is absolutely impossible!"

Dong Ci couldn't believe it: "They are refugees. The emperor placed them and gave them money. The emperor's favor is already great. How can we divide the shares? Are you crazy? Give them enough to eat and be content!"

After speaking, he was worried about disobeying the emperor, so he quickly knelt down to apologize.

"Dong Ci, we are in business. If we want to make more money, we must not be afraid to invest more."

Zhu Qiyu asked him: "When the famine is over and these female workers don't work hard, what can you do?"

"Set severe punishments, those who disobey will be whipped, and those who refuse to change after repeated admonitions will be killed!" Dong Ci sneered.

Are the hearts of these female workers made of iron and stone?If it weren't for the emperor, they would have froze to death and starved to death, how could they make money?Still don't know how to be grateful?

"Dong Ci, you have often been out of the palace recently, have you observed it? Those farmers, do they work harder on farming for themselves? Or do they work harder when they are other people's tenants?" Zhu Qiyu asked him back.

Dong Ci is a smart man who knows everything.

"The servant girl understands, the Emperor Eli promised him to make him work hard."

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "That's right, but the strict law also needs it, just list a rule and require everyone to follow it."

"At the beginning, it was supervised by the eunuch, and when the factory got on the right track, it was managed by female workers."

"The palace doesn't interfere, just send eunuchs to supervise and check the accounts regularly."

Dong Ci was puzzled: "Huh? The emperor is not worried that they will fill their pockets?"

"So we have to set a limit every year. If we reach it, we will be rewarded. If we don't reach it, we will use harsh methods."

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Corruption can never be eradicated. If you put eunuchs in, the corruption will be even worse! Even, the money in the house will be less!"

Dong Ci nodded stupidly, he had a vague feeling that this workshop could be profitable instead.

"More looms are eliminated, and all of them are sold. They are sold cheaper to the people in Beijing, so that they can weave at home, and encourage the people in Beijing to grow mulberry trees at home. After a few years, the mulberry trees will be able to grow silkworms and reel silk. .”

Zhu Qiyu made a rough calculation: "It is enough to keep [-] units, sell the rest, and sell them to the people in Beijing at half price. If some families cannot afford it alone, two or three families can buy one together. You can't dislike it." I'm bored, tell me to go on, sell the money from the loom, and leave it to the workshop as working capital."

"It's absolutely not worth selling. I will send someone to investigate. You should know the consequences of not obeying the imperial edict."

Dong Ci was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

"What else is there to do?" Zhu Qiyu asked him to get up.

"Slaves think that women can also do engraving!" Dong Ci said that engraving is printing.

"Let's hear it." Zhu Qiyu also wanted to know.

"My lord, please listen to the slaves speak slowly."

"As far as I know, there are 1583 craftsmen in the factory, including paper-paper makers, frame-mounting makers, folding and matching makers, calendar makers, printers, black ink makers, pen makers, calligraphers, and typewriters, totaling [-]. More than six hundred people."

"The Jing Factory is divided into three factories, including the Han Jing Factory, the Fan Jing Factory, and the Dao Jing Factory. Among them, the Han Jing Factory is the main one."

"But the slaves have asked the folk scholars, and they all sneered at the classics. Because the collation of the classics is unclear and there are many mistakes, the reputation of the classics is extremely poor among the people, and the sales are extremely low. The book collectors will not Tibetan scripture factory copy."

"You know, the Xikou Bookseller has less than 800 craftsmen, and its daily output is ten times that of the factory, but it occupies half of the publishing and engraving industry. Race to buy collections.”

"My servant has compared the books of the two, the same yellow cotton paper, but the books of Longyou businessman are white and thick, the ink is black and bright, the board is wide, the lines are sparse and clear, the handwriting is neat and round, the Zhao style is between the lines, and the big black mouth , double fish tail, four sides and two sides, clear sentences are read with circles, and the decoration is exquisite, most of them are covered with silk and juan, and the back of the bag is gorgeous and beautiful."

With that said, Dong Ci presented two copies and asked the emperor to compare them.

Zhu Qiyu flipped through it, and compared it with the Jingchangben, throw the Jingchangben directly into the trash can.

"This must be expensive, right?" Zhu Qiyu found out that the books published by Longyou Bookseller were better than what Dong Ci boasted.

"The emperor is wrong, the price of this book is only half of the factory's book." Dong Ci said softly.

Zhu Qiyu narrowed his eyes: "Who is the admiral and eunuch of the economic factory?"

"If you go back to the emperor, the servants don't know about the situation of the supervisor of ceremonies!" Dong Ci kowtowed in fright.

"Humph!"

Zhu Qiyu snorted coldly: "Feng Xiao, send Zhang Yong over."

"Go on."

"The slaves think that women are careful, and if they are craftsmen, they must be more meticulous than men." Dong Ci actually copied a lot of stereotypes and wanted to set up a factory.

"Women are indeed suitable, but scholars may not be willing to buy books printed by women!" Zhu Qiyu sighed.

Dong Ci was stunned for a moment, his thoughts flashed, and he immediately kowtowed: "Your servant did not think of this festival, please forgive me, the emperor."

"Get up, it's good for you to have this idea."

Zhu Qiyu's eyes flickered: "Women, would you like to learn how to engrave?"

"Yes, most of these women have families and are hardworking. They are all willing to work, but they don't want to share a room with men." Dong Ci said after considering it. Grandpa is not happy.

Anyway, they were just some refugees, he could do whatever he wanted, and giving them a bite of food would be the great grace of the emperor.

"Are they all big feet?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"You can't hide anything from the emperor. That's right, they are all peasant women. They are clumsy, but they are willing to learn."

What Dong Ci said is false. All farmers want to land. Who would like to do some work? If you become a craftsman and show your face, how can you feel comfortable farming at home?
It is estimated that Dong Ci frightened them a lot, so he forced them to enter the city, become a craftsman, and not want the land.

"After I clean up the scripture factory, how about recruiting these women into the scripture factory, and releasing those craftsmen to work for you?" Zhu Qiyu said.

Dong Ci's eyes lit up, and he immediately thought of something, and knelt on the ground: "Slaves, servants are worried about opposition from the court, so it is not a happy event to use a woman to write engravings... Slaves think it is better to change jobs!"

"No, I'm not afraid of the rooster sitting in the morning, let them talk! No matter what, the economic factory dares to rectify it."

Zhu Qiyu has been keeping the supervisor of ceremonies.

It was for Zhang Yong to practice his hands. Now it seems that he has to accept it in advance.

"Thank you, Emperor, for your compassion!" Dong Ci kowtowed.

"If they enter the economic factory, their men will also have to find a job."

Zhu Qiyu pondered that if he wants to light up the technology tree, he needs to employ people, such as iron smelting, coal and other industries, all need to employ people.

"Find some houses nearby. Two of the houses of those merchants will be vacated and converted into private houses for them to live in."

Zhu Qiyu changed the subject: "The house was not given to them, it was loaned to them with domestic funds, and they need to earn money in the economic factory to pay it off."

"The servant knows."

Zhu Qiyu was worried that he would explain clearly, so he took a pen to write down the loan statement, without interest, and paid off the house in ten years.

Dong Ci saw it, and could only say that the emperor was crazy about money.

"Factories like paint and paper can be set up, and I have financial support." Zhu Qiyu wants to monopolize the business in Gyeonggi.

"Returning to the emperor, paint, paper and other factories are not feasible in Gyeonggi, and no suitable color block can be found in Gyeonggi, and papermaking is a slow effort, which cannot be achieved overnight. These industries cannot accommodate women. "

Dong Ci reported back.

"Let's do that first."

Zhu Qiyu praised: "Dong Ci, you have done a good job, but pay attention, promote more craftsmen, I will improve the status of craftsmen in the future, and tell these women who enter the factory that they are not craftsmen, and neither are their men. You can take the imperial examination and join the army without being discriminated against.”

"Slaves thank His Majesty for their grace!" Dong Ci knew that a single craftsman could block the hearts of many people.

These women are willing to become craftsmen because they have become refugees. Even if they have a bite to eat, they will not survive.

Zhu Qiyu's words were reassuring to them.

Craftsman, that's low class, inferior!

In fact, it doesn't matter how many factories you open, you have to change people's minds and make people agree that being a craftsman is also an honor.

Don't be in a hurry, come a little bit.

Zhu Qiyu turned his head and asked Feng Xiao: "Is Zhang Yong not here yet?"

"Go back to the emperor, I'll be there soon, I'll be there soon." Feng Xiao replied tremblingly.

"You go back first, and do as you say. I support you. You don't need to save money. It's open, and the printing and engraving factory is the same. The royal family only accounts for [-]%, and the workers account for [-]%."

"My servant, thank the emperor for his kindness!"

Dong Ci kowtowed and left happily.
